Could a move to add a RB be about to happen?

At least they're trying to find OL depth it seems:

"The Redskins’ running back room suffered another minor hit due to injury. Martez Carter, widely considered a preseason phenom who flashed on Thursday night, was waived today, designated as injured. Among other moves, the Redskins also waived Jeff Knox and Jalen Wilkerson, while signing three new players: Wide receiver Allenzae Staggers, defensive back Darius Hillary, and offensive lineman Kendall Calhoun."

Orleans Darkwa is one of the backs visiting tomorrow

I'm watching RB Chris Warren III for the Raiders and he looks good. Anyone think the Raiders might release a good back given their depth at RB?

Jon Gruden likes his veterans so its possible

Seahawks Chris Warren is one of my favorite all time players. Pretty sure I have like 50 of his football cards stored away somewhere at my parents house.

It's always interesting to hear different training styles. Hope this works for Norman:

He sounds like a no-brainer to sign.

FYI.... reportedly Chris Thompson is NOT close to 100%

Surprised Darkwa was available - thought he showed well in games against us. Of course, everyone did.

I think he's a solid back... Kevin Sheehan liked him a lot... So sad his show with Cooley was shut down, any news on that ?

I'm surprised to see Darkwa available throughout the offseason too. He is not amazing RB he played well enough with Giants and yet no team was interested to sign him. Makes me wonder if there's more to it, perhaps he does not have good work ethics or something like that?

I think Darkwa could help us. He averaged about 4.5 ypc running behind a terrible OL last season.

p.s. I just checked on why Darkwa hasn't signed. He had a plate removed from his leg in May. It was put there before last season to stabilize a fracture. The procedure was minor and he is fully healthy. Since that time he has had some offers but none of them was good enough for him to sign.

If I remember right he was always banged up,now to his credit our line sucked so it wasn't always his fault.I thought he was a good back.
